why is that nice? No effort at terrain, just figs laid out? |

Ditto DJ's comment. I always wonder if games like this are actually interesting to play. Are they? |

I like it… maybe a lack of terrain… but still interesting…

Personally I think the game is the thing, not the terrain. So read the write up and don't rush to judgement. Plus, Spanish plains can be pretty featureless! |

Lots of room to maneuver. I have no problem with it even if a fictional battle (I haven't read the AAR yet) but I have had plenty of games where the terrain was so thick, you spent all day just trying to come to grips and then it was quitting time. |

I said "Good find". First, this is a blog post from a blog that i was not aware of, of a major campaign project set in Spain, run by a pretty big group of gamers in… Tasmania! They are playing games WEEKLY, so the terrain has to be functional and easily taken don and set up. So here, yes, I think the game, and the project is the thing. The pictures could be better, but there sure are a lot of troops on the table, making a good overall impression. |
